Resident raises dispute over driveway sinking after village water shut-off repair
Summary
A resident representative said HELM Group work left a sunken driveway at 405 Zimmerman after the village repaired a water shut-off; the board said it views the problem as HELM's responsibility and asked for a repair quote from HELM.
A representative, Mr. Goeke, speaking on behalf of Carol Fluegel at 405 Zimmerman, said a driveway segment sank after a water shut-off was repaired during work by HELM Group. He asked what the village would do about the expense, suggesting the Village was at fault for inadequate ground preparation following the repair.
President Jon Riley offered to meet with a HELM representative because the board regards the issue as HELM's responsibility for improper preparation on a blacktop job. Mr. Goeke said he will obtain a quote from HELM estimating repair costs. The board did not commit to paying the quote at this meeting and did not take formal action; follow-up will depend on the contractor quote and any discussions with HELM.
